ROCK AND ROLL MUSIC / EIGHT DAYS A WEEK
1964 UK 7" PARLOPHONE MONO GEP 8931VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND NOW IN SPARINGLY PLAYED CONDITION, WITH AN EXCELLENT SLEEVE, THIS LOVELY EP IS A TRUE FIRST PRESS: KT TAX CODE EMBOSSED ON A-SIDE & STAMPED AT 9 O'CLOCK ON BOTH RUN-OUT GROOVES. ' THE PARLOPHONE CO. LTD' ON LABEL RIM 'SOLD IN UK..' LABEL TEXT MATRIX NUMBERS 7TCE 860-1 N / 7TCE 861 - 1 N
THE SLEEVE: SO HARD TO FIND A FIRST PRESS BUCKLAND SLEEVE THAT HAS ALL FLIPBACKS PRESENT AND CORRECT AND YES..THERE'S NO WRITING ON THIS SLEEVE AT ALL. TRY AND FIND ANOTHER LIKE THIS. FLIPBACKS HAVE THE CORRECT 45 DEGREE BUCKLAND EDGE FINISH (AS OPPOSED TO THE 90 DEGREE EDGED G&L SLEEVES). THE SLEEVE HAS THE '6504 BUCKLAND' DATE CODED TEXT.
VINYL
LOVELY EX. EXCELLENT AND CLEAR PLAYBACK WITH JUST SOME FEINT BACKGROUND ON RUN-INS AND OUTS AND QUIETER PLACES THAT DOESN'T DETRACT FROM A NICE LOUD AND DYNAMIC PARLOPHONE FIRST PRESSING. TO BE HONEST WHEN THE TRACK'S PLAYING, THAT'S ALL YOU REALLY HEAR. VINYL LOOKS EXCELLENT WITH JUST SOME SMALL STORAGE WEAR AND SOME FEINT SLEEVE REMOVALS. A REALLY NICE COPY - SPARINGLY PLAYED AND WELL LOOKED AFTER!
PLAY GRADED ON A LINN SONDEK LP12 WITH ITTOK LV II ARM AND LINN KLYDE CARTRIDGE. ALL GRADING AS PER RRPG GUIDELINES. PLEASE SEE OUR 'GRADINGS EXPLAINED' SHOP PAGE FOR MORE INFO.
THESE THIN CARD EASILY DAMAGED EARLY PRESS SLEEVES ARE LIKE GOLD DUST WITH NO WRITING, TEARS AND FLIPBACK DAMAGE. I'M GRADING THIS AS EX, BUT MANY MAY GRADE HIGHER. THE LAMINATED FRONT IS IN REALLY NICE CONDITION. A LITTLE FEINT RINGWEAR, BUT YOU HAVE TO LOOK HARD TO SEE IT. THERE IS SOME SMALL CREASING ON EDGES AND A LITTLE MORE ON THE OPENING EDGE, BUT THIS ISN'T THE BAD CREASING THAT'S SEEN ON MOST EARLY SLEEVES AND THE LAMINATE ITSELF IS IN LOVELY CONDITION. THE BACK OF THE SLEEVE IS ALSO IN LOVELY CONDITION. THIS IS REALLY HARD TO FIND UNMARKED. THE MAIN POINTS TO NOTE ARE AN OVERALL SMALL AGE YELLOWING (THIS ISN'T A USUAL MAJOR YELLOWING - JUST A TINT!), AND THE AFOREMENTIONED OPENING EDGE CREASING. NO TEARS. NO WRITING.ALL FLIPBACKS PRESENT AND CORRECT (A TINY INDENTATION TOP RIGHT). A GREAT 'EX' EXAMPLE OF A PIECE OF '60'S MUSICAL HISTORY.
LABELS
NEAR MINT.

We have been buying and selling rare vinyl for over 30 years. We have a large and eclectic vinyl-only stall at most of the major UK record fairs, including Olympia and Westminster, where our reputation for selling records in superb condition is well known. We specialise in all things Psych & Prog, although you'll find all genres in our ebay listings.
Unlike most shops, we play-grade all of our 7" singles, and at least part of our LP's, including run-ins and outs, track breaks and at least one track. Rarer LP's are carefully play-graded all the way through.
We're very proud of our 100% feedback. If there's any kind of problem with the item, please contact us first to resolve before leaving feedback.
Thanks!
